Notify ENERGY STAR integral LED lamp Certification Body recognized by EPA for integral LED lamps, within 30 days, if the designated suppliers of any qualified private labeled integral LED lamps change to a new supplier.
Providing Information to EPA 8. Provide unit shipment data or other market indicators to EPA annually to assist with creation of ENERGY STAR market penetration estimates, as follows:
ENERGY STAR Program Requirements for Integral LED Lamps Partner Commitments 1
8.1. Partner must submit the total number of ENERGY STAR qualified integral LED lamps shipped in the calendar year or an equivalent measurement as agreed to in advance by EPA and Partner. Partner shall exclude shipments to organizations that rebrand and resell the shipments (unaffiliated private labelers). 8.2. Partner must provide unit shipment data segmented by meaningful product characteristics (e.g., type, capacity, presence of additional functions) as prescribed by EPA. 8.3. Partner must submit unit shipment data for each calendar year to EPA or an EPA-authorized third party, preferably in electronic format, no later than March 1 of the following year. Submitted unit shipment data will be used by EPA only for program evaluation purposes and will be closely controlled. If requested under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), EPA will argue that the data is exempt. Any information used will be masked by EPA so as to protect the confidentiality of the Partner. 9. Report to EPA any attempts by recognized laboratories or Certification Bodies (CBs) to influence testing or certification results or to engage in discriminatory practices. 10. Notify EPA of a change in the designated responsible party or contacts within 30 days using the My ENERGY STAR Account tool (MESA) available at www.energystar.gov/mesa.
Performance for Special Distinction In order to receive additional recognition and/or support from EPA for its efforts within the Partnership, the ENERGY STAR Partner may consider the following voluntary measures, and should keep EPA informed on the progress of these efforts: Provide quarterly, written updates to EPA as to the efforts undertaken by Partner to increase availability of ENERGY STAR qualified products, and to promote awareness of ENERGY STAR and its message. Consider energy efficiency improvements in company facilities and pursue benchmarking buildings through the ENERGY STAR Buildings program. Purchase ENERGY STAR qualified products. Revise the company purchasing or procurement specifications to include ENERGY STAR. Provide procurement officials contact information to EPA for periodic updates and coordination. Circulate general ENERGY STAR qualified product information to employees for use when purchasing products for their homes. Feature the ENERGY STAR mark(s) on Partner website and other promotional materials. If information concerning ENERGY STAR is provided on the Partner website as specified by the ENERGY STAR Web Linking Policy (available in the Partner Resources section of the ENERGY STAR website), EPA may provide links where appropriate to the Partner website. Ensure the power management feature is enabled on all ENERGY STAR qualified displays and computers in use in company facilities, particularly upon installation and after service is performed. Provide general information about the ENERGY STAR program to employees whose jobs are relevant to the development, marketing, sales, and service of current ENERGY STAR qualified products. Provide a simple plan to EPA outlining specific measures Partner plans to undertake beyond the program requirements listed above. By doing so, EPA may be able to coordinate, and communicate Partners activities, provide an EPA representative, or include news about the event in the ENERGY STAR newsletter, on the ENERGY STAR website, etc. The plan may be as simple as providing a list of planned activities or milestones of which Partner would like EPA to be aware. For example, activities may include: (1) increasing the availability of ENERGY STAR qualified products by converting the entire product line within two years to meet ENERGY STAR guidelines; (2) demonstrating the economic and environmental benefits of energy efficiency through special in-store displays twice a year; (3) providing information to users (via the website and users manual) about energy-saving features and operating characteristics of ENERGY STAR qualified products; and (4) building awareness of the ENERGY STAR Partnership and brand identity by collaborating with EPA on one print advertorial and one live press event.

8A) OPTION FOR EARLY INITIAL QUALIFICATION WITH IES LM-80-08 AND IN SITU TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT TEST This option is available for integral LED lamps using single color or phosphor-converted LED package(s)/array(s)/module(s) for which IES LM-80-08 test data is available. This initial qualification may be based on IES LM-80-08 data along with results of an in situ temperature measurement test (ISTMT)5 that indicate the temperature of the LED package(s)/array(s)/module(s) when operated in the integral LED lamp. LED temperature is measured at the manufacturer-designated temperature measurement point (TMP). If the IES LM-80-08 data consistent with the ISTMT meets threshold requirements corresponding to the target L70 lifetime, the integral LED lamp is eligible for provisional approval after 3000 hours of integral lamp testing. Continued qualification depends on successful completion of the full test period. Life claims for early initial qualification are limited to the minimum life requirements, though longer life claims are allowed based on longer required test periods and associated lumen maintenance thresholds shown in Tables 1 & 2. Table 4. Requirements for Interim Qualification with IES LM-80-08 and TMP Verification Lumen Maintenance Test Reference Sample Size Passing Threshold Standard / Test Procedure IES LM-80-08 data for LEDs IES LM-80-08 LED packages: 25 At least 91.8% lumen maintenance at 6000 used in the integral lamp LED modules: 10 hours at Ts TMP of LED inside integral lamp and at drive current LED drive current inside integral lamp TMP verification of LEDs In situ Temperature 1 unit per model A test report must be submitted by an inside integral lamp + Measurement Test OSHA NRTL laboratory. declared drive current (ISTMT), ENERGY STAR SSL v 1.1 Operate lamps continuously Elevated 10 units per model Early Initial qualification: average lumen for 3000 hours at 45C (5 Temperature Life - 5 base-up maintenance of 10 lamps 95.8%. base up, 5 base down) Test (ETLT), - 5 base-down NOTE: 93.1% for decorative lamps.

In order to make lifetime claims above ENERGY STAR minimum requirements, PARTNERS shall follow the requirements in section C. A. EARLY INITIAL QUALIFICATION WITH IES LM-80-08 AND 3,000 HOURS OF LAMP LUMEN MAINTENANCE DATA A product photo will be required for certification to assist in identifying the current version of the certified product. A product shall meet all the requirements of the specification, in addition to specific requirements listed in section 8A, a PARTNER shall submit: 3,000 hour lumen maintenance data for the integral LED lamp Packaging Review: All PARTNERS who are qualifying an integral LED lamp shall submit electronic or hard copy labeling and packaging samples for the specific integral LED lamp model. Packaging shall meet all of the requirements that are

identified under the Lifetime Performance and Packaging Requirements. Failure to meet the packaging requirements will delay the qualification process and the integral LED lamp model in question will not be qualified until all packaging requirements are met. The specific qualified model shall be distributed within this approved product packaging. Products that meet the above requirements will be eligible for initial qualification for ENERGY STAR. PARTNERs may begin to market the integral LED lamp model as ENERGY STAR qualified by using the certification mark on the product packaging, and identifying the product as qualified within marketing materials, and the companys Web site.
B. FULL QUALIFICATION: When a product is initially qualified, partners will be provided with a due date for the final average rated life time test report to complete their ENERGY STAR Integral LED Lamp qualification process and fulfill the full qualification requirements. This due date will be based on the date the average rated lifetime test began and the rated lifetime of the integral LED lamp. Failure to submit this final test report within 60 days of completion of the test will result in an immediate disqualification of the model. After the final test report review, if a product does not meet the recorded average rated lifetime, then the disqualification process will be put into effect (see Section 15). Once a model has reached full qualification, it must be re-qualified every 36 months to ensure ongoing design or manufacturing changes maintain overall performance against the program requirements. See Section 16 for more information on the ENERGY STAR INTEGRAL LED LAMP RE-QUALIFICATION PROCEDURE. C. UPGRADING THE LIFE CLAIM OF A PREVIOUSLY-QUALIFIED PRODUCT Once a product has been qualified under the procedures above, ENERGY STAR PARTNERS may increase the claimed lifetime of a product only by demonstrating full compliance with the ENERGY STAR criteria at the new lifetime. If PARTNER plans to initially qualify a product at 6000 hours, and later upgrade the lifetime, the Rapid-Cycle Stress Test duration shall be extended to support the final product lifetime. 11) PRIVATE LABELING PRODUCTS: In the Integral LED Lamps V.1.4, this section was removed to align this specification with EPAs Third-Party certification requirements. 12) COMMERCIAL PACKAGING OF PRODUCTS: ENERGY STAR certified integral LED lamp products that will be bulk packaged for retail or commercial sales must submit a package proof for the container that the qualified products will be shipped in and that clearly displays all of the required criteria to fulfill the packaging requirements for ENERGY STAR. 13) QUALITY ASSURANCE: Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) PARTNERS are required to maintain documentation that describes the measures they are taking to assure their ENERGY STAR qualified integral LED lamp and those products they sell to private labelers meet program and criteria requirements. A. Manufacturing Quality Control Documentation: any of the following industry quality control processes: Adherence to the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9000 family of international quality management standards and guidelines, used as the basis for establishing quality management systems. Employment of the Six Sigma methodology to measure and improve a company's operational performance, practices and systems; or an equally recognized industry process. Other quality control systems or formats that are accepted industry standards. B. Color Consistency: The following quality requirements must be met during the production runs of each lamp model: 1. The lamp manufacturer is required to maintain color control such that a minimum of 90 percent of the ongoing production (as represented by samples tested from each production shift for the same color and when typically evaluated over 12 month period) will fall within the ANSI/NEMA/ANSLG C78.377-2008 chromaticity quadrangle associated with the designated (manufacturer declared) target color. 2. For the purposes of meeting color control, the lamp manufacturer must maintain testing equipment calibrated to international practices and standards and must compile the ongoing color control data in a manner so that is can be easily reviewed upon EPA request. 3. At a minimum, the manufacturers color quality control program must maintain the following information for a 3
14
year period: a. Test dates and sample size (minimum of two lamps per production shift) b. Test results (x,y) for each sample lamp measured c. Test results (all x,y data) for sample lamps plotted graphically against the designated chromaticity quadrangle and available for review at least on a quarterly basis (See Appendix A) d. Records to substantiate that 90 percent of the (x,y) data points fall within the applicable chromaticity quadrangle. Manufacturers are encouraged to exceed this target. 14) THIRD-PARTY VERIFICATION PROGRAM: In the Integral LED Lamps V.1.4, this section was removed. Verification testing for LED lamps will be conducted by certification bodies once the new Lamps specification is effective. 15) DISQUALIFICATION PROCESS: PARTNERS shall refer to EPAs stakeholder letter dated July 20, 2010, available at www.energystar.gov/lightingDQ, for the product disqualification procedures and corrective action requirements. 16) ENERGY STAR INTEGRAL LED LAMP RE-QUALIFICATION PROCEDURE: In the Integral LED Lamps V.1.4, this section was removed. Re-qualification requirements will be addressed during the new Lamps specification development process. 17) RETIREMENT/DISCONTINUATION OF PRODUCTS: Products should be identified to CB as retired/discontinued when they are no longer available. 18) EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date for the ENERGY STAR Program Requirements and Criteria for Integral LED Lamps Version 1.4 will be August 31, 2010. 19) FUTURE CRITERIA REVISIONS: ENERGY STAR reserves the right to change the criteria should technological and/or market changes affect its usefulness to consumers, industry, or the environment.

Ambient Conditions Options A & B state: The ambient temperature shall be maintained at 25C + 10C. The perimeter of the apparatus shall be kept clear of obstacles so that airflow is not inhibited from entering the apparatus during the purge portion of the test cycle. Option B states: The operating temperature within the apparatus (represented as the average of at least four measurement locations specified in Section 8.4) shall be maintained at 55C 5C during the on cycle. The operating temperature within the apparatus shall be achieved within 45 minutes upon on-cycle initiation (additional incandescent lamps may be added as heat sources to achieve this). Ambient Conditions: LED Lamps Clarification For lamps consuming 10 watts or more, the required minimum ambient temperature during aging is 45C as detailed in the specification on pages 9, 11, 14, 15, and 16. This temperature is 10C lower because LED lamps consume less power and generate less heat than a CFL reflector. Elevated Temperature Housing/Apparatus Option A states: Testing shall be conducted using the Halo model H7UICAT incandescent downlight housing. No substitutions shall be allowed. No trim shall be used. Luminaires shall be oriented such that the lamp operates vertical base-up during the life test. The luminaires may be arranged in a horizontal plane or stacked vertically. If stacked vertically, a minimum spacing of 24 must be maintained between the bottoms of each row. Option B states: The interior of the Elevated Temperature Testing Apparatus shall be on a flat section of perforated substrate with ceramic lampholders arranged in a rectangular array. The perforated substrate shall have holes of a minimum diameter of 1/4" spaced at a maximum spacing of 1 on center. The spacing between lampholders shall be no less than 8 on center and no greater than 12 on center. Radiant baffles shall be installed at the mid-point between all lampholders and along the perimeter of the lampholder array. The radiant baffles shall be constructed of an opaque, rigid material and shall be a minimum of 10 in height Elevated Temperature Housing/Apparatus: LED Lamps clarification The Integral LED Lamps specification requires 10 samples per model, 5 oriented base-up and 5 base-down. In Option B, baffles were originally required for CFL testing to enable photometric readings within the Elevated Temperature Testing Apparatus. Baffles are not required for LED lamp testing because the lamps are removed from the apparatus to be tested according to IES LM-79. Additionally, this apparatus was designed for all ten samples to be tested base-up, while the LED lamps specification requires 5 samples base-down and 5 base-up. Therefore, this apparatus would need to be modified to reorient the sockets for LED lamps. EPA will accept lumen maintenance testing performed according to ENERGY STAR CFL V.4.0 elevated temperature test with all lamps operated base-up. However, lamps that have been determined to meet all other ENERGY STAR criteria and were only tested in the base-up position, must list on the packaging that the results are based on base-up operation only. Center Beam Intensity Benchmark Tool Please be advised that early versions of this tool contained an error; the correct version of the center beam intensity benchmark tool should have Log CBCP Two-sigma Lower Bound for both PAR and MR lamps. Partners are strongly encouraged to dispense with any saved earlier versions of the calculator, which would include Log CBCP One-sigma Lower Bound in spreadsheet cell H37. If you have only accessed the calculator online you may need to clear your browser cache and temporary files to ensure you view the most recent version. The target lamp data entered into the benchmark tool must be from an existing incandescent or halogen lamp currently sold in the market. Manufacturer must provide proof of this target lamp to their Certification Body.
